The campers behind the ballpark like to call the cops on cyclists riding on the redrock bike trail system and no specific signage to point out where bikes are allowed and where there not allowed so bike alone at your own risk if there are a lot of people cycling I doubt they would approach you

Very nice place to picnic or camp. No on site store but a dollar general is about 2 miles away. Quiet and peaceful except when the train comes through every hour or two. Fortunately only one in the night time. Big fields for dogs to run and a creek. Canoe shop on site and a small play ground for children.
